![Revolution Bars in Trouble - What Went Wrong?
Once the heartbeat of the UK student nightlife scene, Revolution Bars is now facing serious financial struggles.
The Revel Collective plc (which owns Revolution, Revolución de Cuba, and Peach Pubs) has launched a strategic review and possible sale after:
• 📉 10.5% fall in bar sales
• 💸 Net debt rising to £25.3m
• ⚖️ £4m+ annual cost increase from wage and duty changes
Younger customers - once Revolution’s core audience - have been hit hardest by the cost-of-living crisis, cutting back on nights out. Add rising wages, taxes, and energy bills, and the numbers no longer add up.
This isn’t just about one chain - it’s a warning for the UK bar scene.
Operators need to:
✅ Diversify beyond late nights
✅ Focus on profitable venues
✅ Control labour and supply costs
✅ Rebuild relevance through experience and storytelling
The full analysis is live now on Drink Edition.
